The next meeting will be in two weeks with Mrs. Wilson Beery, Mrs. Fred AU;, and Mrs. Wilson Lee as hostesses. JUNIOR ARTS CLUB HAS FINAL MEETING The Junior Arts Club of the Woman's club held its final meeting of the year at the home of Miss Kath- ' ryn Schroyer Monday evening. Roll I call was responded to by current i events, minutes of the last meeting 1 were read and the treasurer’s rei rort was given. Officers we-® elected for the coming year. They are: Kathryn Weiland president; Alice ■ Yost. vice-president; Kathryn | Shroyer, corresponding secretary; Mary Frank, recording secretary: i Patsy McConnell, treasurer. The meeting was then t turned over to the music department and Anna Jane Tyndall and Marjorie Mil ler told how a erroun of love songs had originated. The giris of the music section sang, ‘‘l Love You Truly”, "Jeanie With Her Light Brown Hair” and “Believe Me Os j All Those Endearing Young Charms." Miss Helen Haubold sang the "Rosary” and Kathryn Schroy er sang, “Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes.” Lovely refreshments were served

ribs. Knowing that Gary Cooper is an ex-cowboy and that cowboys , hate sheep men, Wellman writes out a special page of dialogue one day and hands it to Cooper "Gary,” he says, "we are going , to add a scene here. The sergeant I is sore at you, so he makes you go out and herd sheep.” "Me herd sheep,” says Cooper, , "nothing doing." "But Gary,” argues Wellman, "it's a good scene. It adds punch i to the picture.” "To hell with the picture.” says Cooper, hotly, “I’m not going to herd any sheep.” i In "Rose of Washington Square,” Tyrone Power plays a slick young man who Ilves by his wits, always just inside the law. Since Ty’s last role was Jesse James, the bandit, the company has been doing a good deal of kidding about his playing so many crooks. We arrive on the set just as a detective is frisking Power for hidden jewels. He tinos them but Power has an alibi that the detective can't quite prove is a lie. Power straightens his clothes, smiles with polite superiority. When the shot is finished, a couple of the troupe hiss. Cameraman Karl Freund observes dryly: “Say, Ty, I see where George Raft is leaving Paramount. Maybe you could get his job over there." Joseph Von Sternberg, who went over to M-G-M to direct Hedy Lamarr, is now directing Wallace Beery instead. Both are supposed to be temperamental but, strange to say, they are getting on very well. In fact, Beery is in an almost playful humor when we visit the “Sergeant Madden" set. They are about to make a shot in the stair well of an old-fash-ioned building. Beery has to climb up floor after floor. Standing at the bottom, waiting for his cue, he grins in our direction and booms out: “How do you like this? One more flight and we could remake ‘Seventh Heaven.’ ”

One of the outstanding features of modern ambulance service is the immaculate cleanliness of the interior. The more progressive operators, like the Zwick Funeral Home, make a practice of changing all linens after every call.

COUNCIL PLANS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) are on record. These coordinating councils at first took the prevention of juvenile delinquency as their major objective, although the present trend seems to be toward a more general type of social welfare program. The purpose of these councils is to create the best and happiest community possible by reducing to the lowest possible minimum all anti-social behavior, disease, ignorance and poverty. The premise back of such a council is that this ideal can be most nearly attained when all responsible forces in the community pool their efforts for the common welfare. Suggestions for personnel of the council included: 1 — Religious groups; clergy, missionary societies, councils of church women, young people's societies, all denominational groups. 2 — All social and health agencies, public and private; welfare departments, township trustee, public health nurses, school nurses, health officer, Red Cross, hospital and medical units, dentists, psychologists and psychiatrists. 3— Civic and fraternal organizations; service clubs, woman’s organizations, junior league, philanthropic sororities, lodges, chambers of commerce, American Legion and Auxiliary, etc. 4 — Educational forces: school teachers and administrators, colleges, educational associations, university women's clubs, outstanding educators, parent-teacher associations, etc. 5 — Legian forces: bar assocla-

Hons, prominent lawyers and' judges. 6— Government agencies: I'eder- | al, state, county and 7 — Infornuiiion services: newspapers. radio stations, speakers' bureaus, monthly bulletins, motion pictures, etc. Principal duties of the perman- ! ent executive committee, as Sllgi Rested by Mr. Rhaeklc-ford. are: I—Act1 —Act as a fact finding body In ' the community. , 2—Develop team work among i the various organizations In 'he 1 community. 3 — Establish general policies of • the council. 4 — Interpret the council's pro- ■ | grams to the public of the com ] munity. In closing, Mr. Shackleford | warned that positive leadership of i such a coordinating council is Imi peratlve. and that communitywife participation of lay groups] ] Is highly desirable, that no com-! . munity can be remade in six ■ months, that a long.time progres- j j slve program is the only on®' worth developing.

Common Sense About Constipation A doctor, would tell you that the best thing to do with constipation is get at its cause. That way you don't have to endure it first and try to cure it afterward-you can avoid having it. Chances are you won’t have to look far for the cause if you eat the super-refined foods most people do. Most likely you don t get enough "bulk”! And "bulk” doesn’t mean a lot of food. It means a kind of food that isn’t consumed in the body, but leaves a soft "bulky" mass in the intestines. If this is what you lack, try crisp crunchy Kellogg's All-Bran for breakfast It contains just the "bulk" you need. Eat All-Bran every day, drink plenty of water, and "Join the Regulars." Made by Kellogg’s in Battle Creek. Sold by every grocer.
